Yup I thought so. :cool:

What's really cool is it's so early in '86 that it predates the first Scream show.
That's a big deal because I've read and been told that they only played a "handful" of shows prior to that first Scream show on June 27th.

The thing is that "handful" just keeps getting bigger and bigger. :nod:

So this flyer came in the mail when I was out in L.A. last week.
I'm working on a scan upgrade for the site as I type but my scanner keeps cutting off the bottom. :stormy:

That's not the reason for my post although I'll share the scan upgrade once I'm happy with it.

I thought the image on the flyer looked familiar but I was so excited by the new date factor I forgot about it.
Well now that I'm scanning it and checking it out I figured out why the image is so familiar to me.

It turns out it's a woodcut called 'The Fall of Man" by one of my favorite artists, M.C. Escher.
You can see it and a bunch of his other works on the official M.C. Escher site:

http://www.mcescher.com/

It's in the picture gallery "Italian period 1922 - 1935".

I'll try and convince this scanner to cooperate and post an upgrade ASAP.

Thanks drifter I was hoping it wouldn't go for more than I could afford.
I suppose I could help that cause if I'd wait until the auction closed to post about it. :lol:

Anyway it is in really nice shape for as old as it is and the seller did a great job shipping it.

You're wrong about the price to get in though as the band weren't making the big bucks at this point.
I know it's hard to read but attendees of this show that brought along the flyer got in for a whopping $2.00.

I'm still working on a scan upgrade for the site.
The flyer has been on the scanner bed for about a week now and I found my manual for the scanner.
Fingers crossed I can figure out how to take it out of auto mode and make it scan the full image in manual mode.
